victory for gay rights!

The big win in Maine

Gay rights took a big step forward last night when Maine voters soundly rejected the right wing. I spent the last week and a half volunteering on the campaign of Maine Won't Discriminate. It was an intense campaign right til the end. This was a huge and significant win -- the right wing haters lost by a 10 point margin of 55%- 45%:

And, of course, the country wins when we resolve to treat everyone equally.
Let's hope that more common sense laws go into effect around the country.
